how well do these transplant? I would like them to get a little bigger and then transplant several into a box for a wedding table decor

If you plant three in a box, it would make a nice small centerpiece.Despite being a healthy and nice variety of plants, the plants arrive in a 2" pot and are quite tiny. I used the plants from this company as accents for the wedding bouquets. I purchased 4" and 5" plants for transplantation for the reception centerpieces.

Nope. Too tiny. They are perfect for confetti on the table but if you are looking to fill a vase I think you need bigger. I had them for my wedding and they looked gorgeous on the table spread around. I hope that helps

I used an AeroGrow set, (which has very small amt of growing medium) but I imagine you could use small pots, or even seed growing kits/egg cartons, just to begin growing the seeds. When approx 2-3 inches transplant to larger pots and/or outside if the weather is agreeable.

I ordered these a couple months ago and they actually look like 4 sticks with each in plastic bag and a little soil. I planted them according to directions given. I put each in a separate 10 inch pot and set them in the sun and they are doing fine. They started sprouting leaves about a week or two after they were planted. Not all of them developed leaves at the same time. Mine have not bloomed but I am sure they will. My sister ordered them about 3 months ago and one of hers has had a little bloom. They do not like to be watered too much so read the instructions. Yes, they are the actual colors that are listed so I marked my pots when I planted them so I can see which ones mature the fastest.

I have only had mine transplanted about a week. Given ideal conditions, they will spend the first month developing a root system. After that, new growth will appear. They like to have a southern exposure and water with a cactus fertilizer.

I did it the other way around. Seeds then transplant which it what it seems to be designed to do. It is compact and provides plenty of light, but the size may limit what you want to use it for. I don't know what your started plants are but look at the dimensions. Even my cherry tomatoes outgrew it but it does everything it is designed to do well. Very well. It is plant and forget. It will tell you what it needs - water,fertilizer,etc.

Diane, I know when I planted mine late last year it took awhile for them to come up too. Not knowing how you planted them I'm not sure what's going on. Hopefully you planted them no more than maybe an inch deep in good soil, with at least some sun shine and have been watering them occasionally. If so, they should be popping up soon. The ones I planted this year only got about half as tall as last year before they started to bloom, but they came up quicker. I would rather have the bigger plants. Be patient, I don't think you will be disappointed.

I was well pleased with my order, but my intent was not as specific. I just wanted to see what they were like, as i had never experienced succulents. They are fun, and can be placed in many different vessels for many different effects. Mine are all still alive!!!! i would suggest you contact the seller to see what they have at this time. Sorry, not as knowledgeable as you.

The ones we have have not....but we still have them in the pots they came it...maybe if they are transplanted into bigger pots they will....

Hey there. I just used these pots again and have germination. I separate these little pots using scissors. It makes transplanting easy. They are sturdy, but I wouldn't let them stand alone. They conveniently disintegrate; I love them;)

I waited until mine died down in the fall after it flowered and dug some up. Some were big and some little. I had to dig down a bit to get to them. I figure next year they will be bigger. I left most in the ground to grow back. I dug some up in the spring and they were bigger.The ones planted directly in the ground did better than the ones I grew in containers. Hope this helps.

I separated all and put in small pots. If half make it I will be happy. They ship a lot in one pot so it looks like a great plant. I have lost 5 plants out of all that I got. Good luck.

Yes, you must start with a small plant, of course you can start it yourself in a starter tray and transplant.

I'd say start with 4" diameter...you can always transfer them if they grow too large.

I got mine about 6-7 months ago and some have more than quadrupled in size. Definitely re-pot them. Mine are on the porch but they will do well inside, too.

I'm not sure I could be much help unfortunately mine died just after I got it but i think you can set it up in a nice warm environment so it doesn't get too cold you should be fine.. now transplanting it I wouldn't think you would be to do it immediately... I don't know the growth rate on this particular species I think you'd be fine until spring...

They just come in small black greenhouse production pots. Not too attractive. You could replant them into nicer 2" to 3" planters, but it would probably be easier to make a decorative wrap with foil or paper using the existing planter, and tie with some nice ribbon. A nice wide decorative ribbon might work all by itself. Your florist could probably give you some good ideas.
